Library Exhibit Features
Latih-American Prints
Of Contemporary Art
Latin American prints, com
prising a collection of 75 exam
ples of contemporary graphic art
from 18 Central and South Amer
ican countries, will be exhibited
in the College Library until De
cember 2. In its revelation of the
character and human aspects of
these ■ countries, the collection
provides a cross section of native
life in the “Good Neighbor’’ re
publics.
Etchings, lithographs* and
woodcuts are the thi’ee predomi
nant means of expression char
acterizing the exhibit. Some aqua
tints and mezzotints are also in
cluded, as well as examples of
the copper plate medium, mostly
from Brazil and Argentina.
Critics, in appraising these art
works, have seen “A great feeling
of spontaneity, vigor, and fresh
ness.’’ Any lack in draftsmanship
and polish, it is said, is balanced
by. an inherent feeling for move
ment and . a sort of primitive sin
cerity, The artists’ choice of sub
ject matter reflects an interest in
their • native environment; in the
activities of their fellow man.
Public showing of the prints,
wihidi have been viewed in more
tharr-50 museums and educational
institutions in the United States
and Canada, is daily from 7:50
a. m. to 10 p. m.; Saturdays from
7:50 a. m. to 5 p. m.; and Sundays
from 2 to 10 p. m.

KKG's Adopt
Dutch Girl; 8
Kappa Kappa Gamma sorority
has adopted an eight-year-old
Dutch girl in -Holland, Wilhel
mina C. F. Mas, through the Fos
ter Parents’ Plan for Wiar Chil
dren, it was announced by Mrs.
Edna Blue, executive chairman of
the Plan.
IWilhelmina and her little
brother, Cornells, were born in
Batavia, Dutch East Indies, where
their parents had moved from
Holland. Their father, a successful
planter, joined the army when
war came. The Japanese took
him with other prisoners and he
died of hard labor and malnutri
tion, according to the child’s case
history.
In the meantime Mrs. Mas and
the two children were confined
to a concentration camp where
the inadequate diet brought about
malnutrition and a highly nerv
ous condition in Wilhelm ina’s
case. After the liberation of the
Island, Mi's. Mas learned of her
husband’s, death. This, together
with what she and the children
had endured, brought her to a
state of near collapse, the history
continues.
Upon their return to Holland,
they were penniless, had no
furniture to start a home, and
had only the clothing they wore.
During'the war years their rela
tives in Holland had been
bombed-out and could not help,
it was pointed out.
* Wilhelmina is very nappy under
the Plan, according to Miss Blue.
A special vitamin-enriched diet
has already added some weight
and new color to her cheeks. A
typical blond, she has a quick,
alert mind and enjoys .her school,
the report points out. The sorority
will pay $l5 per month for her
support.
